Returns Policy

Return Eligiblity

Please read the drop down menu below to confirm if you're item is eligible for return. Being unaware of our returns policy/eligibility will not entitle you to a return.

Returns Period

All returns must be submitted through our returns portal and physically shipped back within 14 days of receiving your order.

SALE RETURNS POLICY
Items purchased on sale are eligible for a store credit + 10% or exchange only. Refunds are not available for these orders.

Items marked as final sale are not eligible for return at all, unless required by Australian Consumer Law.

FREE GIFTS WITH PURCHASE
If you receive a free item or gift with your purchase and your return value is below the original minimum order amount to qualify for the gift, the free gift must also be returned and be in its original condition to be eligible for a refund.

Free gifts do not need to be returns when opting for a store credit or exchange.

Store Credit+10%

If you opt for a store credit, you'll receive the full purchase price plus an extra 10%. This will be emailed to you as a gift card once your return has been received, processed and approved.

Gift cards are valid for 3 years and can be used to purchase any item on the Ochre Lane website.

EXCHANGES

We offer exchanges on all orders excluding final sale items.

You can return the item for a different size or style, provided it is in stock or on pre-order.

If you choose to exchange for a different style and the purchase amount is higher than previous item, you'll need to pay the difference. If the exchange item is lower in price, you will receive a store credit.

There is a $10 exchange shipping fee on all exchange orders, which will be paid at the time of submitting your return, along with the return shipping fee.

Faulty Items

If you believe your item is faulty, it must be returned to us for assessment before any resolution can be offered. We are unable to provide refunds, replacements, or store credits without first inspecting the item.

Once received, our team will carefully review the garment to determine whether it meets the criteria of a manufacturing fault under Australian Consumer Law.

Please note:

  • Our pieces are made using premium, delicate fabrics and trims. We strongly recommend following the care instructions provided to avoid damage.
  • Damage caused by improper care, general wear and tear, snagging, pulling, chlorine exposure, or contact with rough surfaces will not be considered a manufacturing fault.
  • Items showing signs of misuse, incorrect washing, or failure to follow care instructions will not be approved as faulty.

We always consider your feedback when reviewing a claim. However, the final assessment of an item’s condition remains at the discretion of our team. We reserve the right to decline a faulty claim if the item does not meet the above criteria.

Return Shipping

Return postage is covered by the customer.

Australia + U.S. orders are provided with a paid returns label at the time of submitting a return – the cost of the label is deducted from your refund or store credit.

If you're return for an exchange, you will be promoted to pay the return fee + exchange shipping fee at the time of submitting your return.

Please note:
We do not take responsibility for any lost or stolen return parcels.

Under no circumstances are we able to process a return for any item lost or damaged during transit.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMS FEES, DUTIES & TAXES

We do not cover any additional customs fees, duties or taxes applied to any international orders.

Depending on the value of your order, your local customs office may require you to pay an additional fee to release your item.

If any applicable duties and taxes are not paid, the order will be returned to Ochre Lane. A refund will be processed back to the original form of payment, minus a return fee and any custom charges paid by us to receive your order back.

Please refer to your local policy regarding import duties and taxes prior to purchase.

Refund of Duties & Taxes   

Upon return of your items, any applicable customs & duties paid at checkout or upon receiving your order will not be refunded by Ochre Lane.

We recommend contacting your local customs office for information on any possible customs and duties refunds that you may be eligible for within your country.

Taxes are refundable and will be refunded at the time of return.  

Return Processing Time

Please allow up to 7 business days for your return to be processed once it is received. We strongly suggest using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance.

Return Conditions

All returned items must be unworn and returned in original condition to be approved.

  • All tags and hygiene stickers attached to the garment.
  • Returned in their original Ochre Lane garment bag.
  • Have no signs of wear — this includes no lint, pet hair and try on marks (make up, deodorant and body care products).

Returns that do not meet these conditions or are sent back outside of the 14-day returns window will be rejected and returned to sender.

Lodge Your Return

If your return meets the above return conditions please submit your return through our returns portal below.

You'll need the order number (e.g. #OL0000) and the email used to place the order.
